Especially if the chum contains kryptonite, you make an excellent point.

On the other hand, I wasn't interested enough to actually rewrite the spreadsheet, so instead, I made this graphic to stick on my deco bottles.

For those of you that are interested, this is a vector graphic and will cleanly scale to any size and can be printed on clear adhesive stock to stick on the "Spare Air" of your choice.
My buddy put them on his double 108's. Mine is on a 19 and a 40.

Hmm maybe I should go on a cruise dive: I'm sick of always looking like a newb and need to look more like a pro. It's that or spend years training and diving to actually get betterIn any case, I've got some training coming up this winter. The cruise ship dives are the best rescue training on the planet. It's like being inside the SSI Stress and Rescue video.
I think I can probably handle the calculations. They certainly aren't any worse than Advanced Nitrox, Deco, my DiveCon exam or the calculations in the fianancial software I write for my clients.
I had wanted to send the spreadsheet to a new diver that asked me the eternal question "Should I get a Spare Air?" because it very plainly shows where you would run out of air when doing an emergency ascent on a Spare Air, compared to a 19, 30 or whatever.

I'm not so sure. He seems to be a sucker for a cute girl.
If Jessica Alba and I had spent the afternoon rolling in chum, then accidentally fell out of the dive boat directly over a shark feed, I'm pretty sure Cape-Boy and Jessica would be having dinner that evening someplace romantic, while I'd turn up on CDNN as another Shark Attack.

See? Your lack of confidence in this simple scenario proves that you don't have the first clue about what you're doing. A properly trained diver could easily fend off the shark attack while Superman and Jessica had dinner--shoot, a properly trained diver would finish in time to meet them after the soup course. I'm not gonna teach you how to dive on tha Internets, so I won't tell you how to do it. Get some more training before you even consider getting back in the water.
